5k

Dan, the kids, and I ran/walked a 5k this weekend.  It was a fund raiser for the school.  Me and the kids did it last year and decided that we were going to do it every year and this year Dan joined us too.  I was really trying to back out of it but Dan wouldn't let me:)  he was very encouraging and even though I have been sick forever and had not practiced for it I did it.   Dan and his buddy ran it in 26:37,  Kadrey ran it in 35:54, I walked/jogged it in 44:41, and Jaxon did it in 48:??  (he must have gotten distracted near the end -saw a bug on the ground or a butterfly haha-because he was with me through most of it).  None of us had really "trained" for it and felt that ready but we all finished - Dan and Dree did really well I think:)  and we had a lot of fun too:)

Hi!

I know I know it has been forever since I posted - and I have a goal to write at least 4x a months, not meeting my goal so far:)  I know that it is lame but it is cold in our basement and sitting down here is just too much some days lol.

I have to write about this crazy goal that Kadrey scored in her game the other day.   Its her boys team and its indoor soccer just so you know:)

Kadrey is fast....... so fast.   The mid-fielder passed the ball to her and when she saw a defender coming toward her she kicked the ball up over his head ran past him (because she is fast remember:)  got the ball and because she had out ran all the defenders it was just her and the goalie she then blasted the ball right past the goalie into the net. She doesn't always have the power to win the ball when she is challenged (although she will always try and does not give up easily) but she is fast and pretty aggressive out there. Yeah it was pretty awesome.

Jaxon has had some pretty sweet goals too........ one he kicked it off (from mid field)  it went so far that it hit the wall (by the goal - its indoor remember) bounced back to him and he kicked it again and scored.  We know that technically the goal should not have counted but his team was getting creamed and it was so awesome - so  they let it slide:)

Dan also has been doing great with his team... his favorite are the headers that he makes (they are pretty sweet).

I will try to remember to take pictures one of these days, until then I guess just use your imagination:)
